Another Ballot for Senator.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 24.-The general
assembly met in joint convention at noon
and took one ballot, which resulted:
Turpie "a, Harrison 10, Allen 4. All the
members with TWO exceptions were pres
ent and voted. Worrall, Democratic rep
resentative, is detained at home by sick
ness and is paired with O'Brien. 1t is
not known how much longer the friends
of Allen will continue to cast their votes
for him, but it is considered certain they
will do so for several days yet and the
prospect for ar election is no better than
it was last week.

READING, Pa, Jan. 24.-All small
streams and the Schuykill river are risen.
The ice in the river broke and a monster
gorge is formed near Shoemakersville,
above Reading. backed solidly, fifteen feet
high the entire width Of the river for
several miles. Being drawn back, water
tows over the surrounding country, and
it Is still rising. Serious damage is feared.
Many fences were carried away and some
live stock were drowned.

BUFFALO, Jan. 24.-The ice is only
eight inches thick, otherwise there would
have been a clean sweep Of everything in
the river. The situation is threatening.
Nine-tentbs of the thirteenth ward is I'M
der water. Between three and four
thousand acres of land in the ward are sub
emerged. Cellars are flooded, and fences
swept away. Several families had a mar
row escape. One house with its inmates
only escaped destruction by the interyen-
ton of a number of trees. which caught
and held the ice. The Erie tracks at the
transfer freight house are under water,
being higher than during the great food
three years ago. The Atlas refining yard
is under water, but the Kalbfeisch chem
ical works dock is under four feet of
water. All the buildings had been secured
by ropes to prevent their floating away.
The natural gas stop cocks are four feet
under water, and the gas supply was sus-
pended during yesterday and last night.
The damage will be heavy.

Rumors of War.

VIENNA, Jan. 24.-Although the Bull
garian situation has improved, the mill
tary preparations of the Austro-H Hungarian
government continue unabated. In the
event of mobilization three great armies
will be formed, each corps having no less
than 10000 men. The commanders for
these corps have already been designated.
1t is believed these gigantic preparations
have been undertaken more from fear
of war with Russia concerning Bulgaria,
than with a view to the contingency OF war
between France and Germany, which
would cause additional Eastern complica-
tons.

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking of OF revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines no doubt has largely
benefited the consumers az well as reliev-
ing the burden of home manufacturers.
Especially is this the case with GREEN'S
Augnst Fior,1' and Boschee's German
Syrup, az the reduction of thirty.six cents
per dozen has been added to increase the
size of the bottles containing these RENE
dies, thereby giving one fifth more medi-
cine in the 70 cent size. The august
Fio'ccr for Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plant. and the Gein,dn Syrup Tor Cough
and Lung Troubles, have perhaps the
largest sale of any medicines in the world.
The advantage OF increased size of the
bottles will be greatly appreciated by the
sick and afflicted in every town and village
in civilized countries. Sample bottles for
10 cents remain the same size.

Colonies the Chickens.

After chickens are two months old
there IS no sense in allowing them to
huddle at night ia the coops. Roost-
ing sheds made like a shaped coop,
only high, and long enough to accom-
modate 80 or 10 chickens, should be
put up and the chickohs taught to
roost in them. Yes, know that some
poultry writer's declare that if chickens
are allowed to roost before nearly
grown, crooked breast bones and wry
tails will result, out 'taint So" any.
way it wont be if you give your chick
ems broad, hat perch, and place it
right in the middle Of the shed.
This perch, which should be board
five or six inches wide, should rest on
cross-pieces fastened firmly to the
ends of the shed about Is inches from
the ground. The ends of the shed
should be left open, or else be provided
with doors Of wire netting. On such
sheds the chickens can roost, and find
shelter in stormy weather; until late in
fall and it. will be much better for
them than to huddle together on the
ground in the little coops, Or to go into
the hennery with the old fowls.
To teach the chickens to roost in
the sheds, take them from their coops
after dark, put them in the shed and
fasten them in for two Or three DAYS:
then let them out an hour or two be.
fore sunset and they will probably all
go back to the shed to roost---i. e., if
you have moved their old coops away.
But if all do not return to the shed,
you must hunt them up and put them
in with the rest. About feeding the
chickens while shut in the shed you
will find that little runs"

Two Gamblers Give an Exhibition
ofPoOr Marksmans hin.

At 1880 o'clock yesterday afternoon, when
the streets were filled with people going to
and coming from dinner two men who were
standing on Washington avenue, near the
corner of First avenue south, were seen to
draw revolvers and open fire on each other
Five shots had been exchanged when Officers
Schroeder and Bradley appeared upon the
scene and put stop to the shooting match
The men were taken to the lookup, and
shortly afterwards arragned in the municipal
court, where they gave their names as Mel
FitZ and William Attamer. They were
charged with assault in the second degree
and, waving examination, were held to the
grand jury in $500, which they each fur
nished. The details of the bloodless episode
are as follows: Attamer is gambler,
who has been in Minneapolis for several
years, of and on. Lately he has been running
gambling house on a limited scale at los
Washington avenue south. Fitz, his antago-
MIST came 10 the city last fall from Leadvflle
and has been q faro dealer until lately at
NicOllet avenue gambling house. Both men
are good dressers and take considerable pride
in their ability TO ensnare the hearts of suS-
ceptble females. aud a women may be at the
bottom of the trouble. According to Fitz
however, he "bucked the tiger at Attamer's
establishment Monday night, and was about
$500 winner, when Attamer began to abuse
MIN. He drew out of the game and left the
house rather than get into a row. When he
met Attamer yesterday he insisted that
an apology was due him. Alta mer
refused to. comply, and pulled gun from his
pocket. Fitz also numbered a miniature
howitZer, and after the exchange of several
abusive epithetS struck Attamer over the
head with his revolver. Attamer began firing.
and Fitz returned the attention, Attamer
firing three times and Fitz twice. They were
stopped by the police. The men were less
than ten feet apart, and both being the pos
SCISSORS of rotund proportions, they pre-
sented easy targets. Their bullets flew
wide of the mark, as hole in an electric
light globe overhead testifies. The affair hap
pened in front of Warmers undertaking
house, and ali the appointments for first
class funeral seem to have been on hand
The fact that no one was hurt, when the
street was crowded, can only be accounted
for upon the theory that the numerous spec
tators were on the ground, and not upon the
roofs of the buildings in that vicinity

quietly and was scarcely without interest,
except as unknown nominations were made
public. The Democratic caucus presented
an unbroken front and carried with it every
office in the gift of the council. The proceed

sherwood,s second RecitaI.

Peterson & Blakies piano wareroom was
well filled last night with an appreciative
audi ence which listened with deep interest to
the wonderful music which Mr.. Sherwood gave
them. The programme was one to tax the abil-
tiles of any artist, but so even are Mr.. Sher-
woods abilities that it is hard to say
in what he excelled. A prominent local
teacher said yesterday that if Sherwood
were gymnast he would be described as a
first-class, all-round athlete;'' he is par ex-
celence the leading pianist of America, COM
bining brilliant technique with unusual ex-
preston. Last night he gave twelve selec-
tons from the works of Beethoven, Bach,
Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Heuselt,
Wagner. Kullak. Sherwood, Dupont, Ruben
stein and List, and throughout the evening
he played without notes.
The vocal numbers were very pleasing.
Miss Hartford has a deep contrato voice
of great power: her upper notes suffer some
what by comparison with the lower, which
are very sweet and full. She sang 80 MILO
Fernando for her first number, and was
warmly applauded, having won her audience
with the first notes OF the song. Miss Har-
ford will always be sure of hearty welcome
from Minneapolis music lovers. Miss Susie
Jones, the accompanist, added much to the
effect of the vocal selections by the excel
lence of her work. She displayed good taste
and Judgment in her playing, and her efforts
were fully appreciated.
